how to do solo mining? i made a conf file but dont know what to add to node ? kindly check and tell me if i made it right rpcuser=rpc_enguser rpcpassword=*password rpcallowip=* rpcport=3440 listen=1 server=1 addnode=  ??For now, do not bother with solo mining with the wallet in a server type mode. When cheetah cpu miner tool is released, a sample NENG config file will be included as json-rpc API is used by cheetah software. For now cpu mining NENG, just use the QT wallet (window or Linux). Do not run wallet constantly because you won't find more blocks and it will also get stuck by the dynamic hashing algorithm. Follow my post here that type a few word to mine NENG when the block chain is stuck, and type few words to stop CPU mining when the ASIC miners are pounding loud. |

Update on Dec 14, 2018
digestion of transcripts from DISCORD channel conversation on the past several days of NENG blockchain issue on Tue Dec 12, to Wed Dec 13, 2018:
flex.hit 12/07/2018
ASIC are stuck non stop last 2 days . i mine with 150 mh only
honglu69 Last Saturday at 11:54 AM
Yes, I noticed that. ASIC got stuck frequently now.
I only mined one or two blocks. Most non ASIC blocks were mined by others, I guess CPU miners.
henry Last Wednesday at 7:54 PM
what plans do we have to get this coin accepted at businesses in the new england usa area.
i'd love to help once i know you're comfortable with website mining pools exchanges etc.
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:09 PM
@henry because NENG is decentralized coin with no boss. Just take my opinion as one member proposal, not necessarily the fact of path forward.
I forsee NENG to have similar org like NYC, to have some sort of community election group to control neng future.
Community then will have mass marketing action, maybe regular meeting in New England area , a meetup
henry Last Wednesday at 8:09 PM
is the blockchain hung? i'm still loading from 4 hours ago.
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:10 PM
Blockchain is fine. It does require CPU miners to smoothout
I will come back mine some blocks with PC window 10. ASIC gets hung all the time
henry Last Wednesday at 8:13 PM
ok. thats some good ideas.
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:15 PM
We will release new tool upgrade soon. The tool will automatically mine neng when ASIC stuck, stop mining when ASIC is good
henry Last Wednesday at 8:16 PM
ok.
i get confused whe nyou tal kabout it being stuck, as it seem my asic doesn't stop hashing and getting accepted hashes
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:17 PM
When this tool called cheetah is done, I will run one version of CPU miner in Linux pc
@henry you know ASIC miners are stuck when 3 minutes past with no block
henry Last Wednesday at 8:18 PM
looks like 5 hrs so far
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:19 PM
OK， I was busy with other, not aware of 5 hours of no block. I will come back to mine one block with window 10 wallet
henry Last Wednesday at 8:21 PM
if i set up a rig running on the network will that find the block s when rig gets stuck, or do i need to do something
special
i mean, whe nasic gets stuck
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:22 PM
@henry current only PC Linux or window 10 can mine block when it is stuck
I think GPU gets stuck too. Mainly the software has assumption in difficulty, they think it is fixed number. But it changed after 2 minutes of no block
henry Last Wednesday at 8:24 PM
i have a win 10 machine i ca nsetup to just run cpu against the neng bc, will that help if i just keep it running ?
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:25 PM
@henry It will, but tedious manual labor work. You can follow my guide in bitcointalk Ann how to CPU mine
CPU wallet needs to stop mining when the chain is normal. Only start when it is stuck
For a 4 core window 10, it takes about 6 minutes to mine a block when bc is stuck
henry Last Wednesday at 8:28 PM
im trying to stop the loss of 5 hours of ming whe nits stuck since i dont watch all of my machines very closely all the time.
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:28 PM
For a 2 core Linux pc, I think it takes 10 minutes to mine a block when bc is stuck
henry Last Wednesday at 8:28 PM
was hoping if i had the cpu on all the time it would keep the asic going.
honglu69Last Wednesday at 8:28 PM
@henry:thumbsup:
henry Last Wednesday at 8:29 PM
my wallet is definately stuck at 4 hours
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:31 PM
Last time the bc was stuck for 5 hours, I woke up in the morning and used CPU and mined one block
I think how long ASIC or GPU will stuck on neng is unpredictable. NENG is CPU minable coin and rely on CPU to have smooth blockchain
henry Last Wednesday at 8:35 PM
so, you dont want us mining it with an asic ? just our cpu's ?
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:37 PM
Because of almost death of NENG on NOV 20， I do not think neng will go back to old days, a 100% ASIC coin
henry Last Wednesday at 8:38 PM
i'm good with whatever you choose, but i thought it was ok to use my asic and my gpu rigs - and will stop if you only want to make sure cpu minable is only way to be done.
i have a few cpu rigs i can setup here just need to knw i'll find blocks if i spend the time to set the mup.
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 8:39 PM
No need to stop ASIC, My intention is not to forbid ASIC or GPU, just s limitation.
henryLast Wednesday at 8:39 PM
ok colio.
honglu69Last Wednesday at 8:41 PM
The end goal is decentralization, and security against hack, particularly risk of 51% attack.
The planned upgrade in next two quarters is likely to limit ASIC more, but not forbid ASIC .
honglu69 Last Wednesday at 9:09 PM
NENG blockchain should be normal now. I mined one block with 4 core CPU in Linux

NewEnglandcoin (NENG) Near Term Dev Roadmap PublishedNewEnglandcoin mission is to be one of the most decentralized and secure cryptocurrency for the region of New England, and for friends of New England globally. NewEnglandcoin is clone of Litecoin, which itself is a clone of Bitcoin. NewEnglandcoin has dogecoin like supply at 84 billion maximum NENG. This huge supply insures that NENG is suitable for retail transactions and daily use. The inflation schedule of NengEnglandcoin is actually identical to that of Litecoin. Bitcoin and Litecoin are already proven to be great long term store of value. The Litecoin-like NENG inflation schedule will make NewEnglandcoin ideal for long term investment appreciation as the supply is limited and capped at a fixed number Roadmap- 2018 Q3 - Birth of NewEnglandcoin, window/linux wallet - Done

a LESSON should be learned here. It was indeed a double spending thief event at ShorelineCrypto exchange.
I appreciate and thank MC dev kzv for all the work he has done for the coin and for the opentrade opensource platform. The financial loss is small, only a few USD dollar amount and we will take care of it by our own pocket at ShorelineCrypto exchange.
The thief is likely to return at any chance and there are lots of shady people in the world.
Any future wallet software upgrade or fork should be taken with great care. Exchange business is risky business and let's minimize the risk for all the exchanges that support this coin.

New Marycoin version available here https://github.com/multicoins/marycoin/releasesThere is fixed critical bug This is not hardfork, but update is strongly recommended. For update, download and run wallet with this flags: -reindex -rescan The wallet version has issues. Tested this v0.6 win64 wallet, just a fresh sync from beginning to end with an empty wallet on window 10 PC. The syncing stopped at "Number of blocks left: 109", at blocks 66813, it won't sync from yesterday. Checked peers, three banned, three allowed. Do not dare to update my real wallet until this syncing issue is fixed. All right. Miners have not yet caught up old chain. I think today everything will come back to normal OK, this sounds like this is a hardfork. We got a big dump on MC at ShorelineCrypto with three suspicious transactions (MC/DOGE pair): Time Type Volume Price
29 Nov 2018 9:31:25 sell 25000 0.002
29 Nov 2018 9:31:10 sell 464.1445 0.0021499
29 Nov 2018 9:31:2 sell 3326.68 0.3 The above seller was willing to sell 25000 MC at 0.002 right after the release of the new wallet. I am fearing that this might be a double spending attack because of this fork. I suspended all trading/deposit/withdraw on MC. The money above is not big amount. Hopefully I am wrong and over-alarmed on MC situation. |

Hello Mary!
She is two years old and she does not speak English ))  When She become a young girl, I am pretty confident there will be no language barriers. BTW, I understand zero Russian, but I frequently read and understand 100% on MC Russian bitcointalk and local official thread in Russian language, with a single click of Google translation. |

A Warning to ASIC Miners:
The new NENG dynamic algorithm does not exclude ASIC miners. In fact ASIC were the dominant minining community before Nov 20, 2018 and will continue to be in the future.
However, just be cautioned before any new ASIC miners throw huge hashing power into NENG block chain. The new dynamic hashing difficulty adjustment algorithm is not ASIC-friendly, could be subject to hours of no blocks to be found by ASIC miners while CPU PC solo miners are not subject to this. Just a statement of facts observed by past several days of new algorithm operation.
A NENG member in DISCORD complained for spending $5 USD a day on ASIC mining NENG and got virtually very little NENG afterwards. Just be cautioned here. The NENG blockchain is fine in operation. However, profitability wise, there is no guarantee for mining NENG with ASIC, mining is risky business particularly with our NENG new algorithm. If one get $5 USD to spend, one might be able to buy more NENG from ShorelineCrypto Exchange rather than blindly mining NENG with ASIC mining rigs.

NENG blockchain is normal now. Many blocks found. I think ASIC miners got stuck for 5 hours, no CPU PC solo miners stepped in to unlock the chain. Also there were no transactions during 5 hours. If there was, I do not believe ASIC miners should have stuck there to begin with. |

Welcome fellow New Yorkers to our NewEnglandCoin (NENG)! Within a few minutes, you can mine 20,000 NENG with just a window/linux PC!NENG currently is CPU minable even with high ASIC hashrate because our newly implemented dynamic hashing difficulty adjustment algorithm. NENG has very low transaction fees and 10x faster than bitcoin on blockchain. NENG is also listed at ShorelineCrypto exchange ( https://shorelinecrypto.com/market/DOGE-NENG ) for live trading 24 hour a day.

How to CPU Mine NENG with Window PC or Linux
Today NENG blockchain becames CPU-minable almost. The hashrate of ASIC miners are high, 1 Gh/s. However, it apears that ASIC miners got stuck at pool every other blocks. This means
that when ASIC miners previous block was longer than 2 minutes, PC window or Linux users can simply fire up GUI wallet, click "help" -> click "Debug Windows" -> "Console" -> Type below text "setgenerate true". You will be mining NENG, wait for several minutes, you can mine one block. Then "setgenerate false" to stop mining. Only one block at a time. The next one or few blocks belong to ASIC miners. Repeat next time when ASIC miners got stuck again.

I noticed that ASIC miners got stuck on blockchain more frequently today. Hopefully many lucky CPU PC miners scored the blocks
|
|
|
|

The above post was for linux 64 bits, Ubuntu linux. But it also works for window 10. I actually mined another block from window 10 (64 bits), just the wallet with solo mining.
The more frequent ASIC miners got stuck on NENG blockchain, the more chance for small CPU/GPU solo miners to act and scoop a block immediately.

Exclusive for small GPU/CPU Miners - How to Steal a Block from ASIC MinersWhen all ASIC miners left, sure, GPU/CPU miners can step in and mine NENG happily. Now that ASIC miners are back , and now with 1Gh/s hashing rate. If GPU/CPU miners join pool now, most likely would get almost nothing with huge electricity cost. Are there any chance for CPU/GPU when ASIC miners are into NENG mining? Yes. Below is real story of how I did it with 4 CPU windows PC, with only maybe 200 Kh/s hashing power, less than 0.02% of total networking hashing power, still got a block mined today. Here is screen shot proof: https://ibb.co/VSWQBdsThis is the block I mined at block chain, for above screen shot: http://nengexplorer.mooo.com:3001/tx/202b9b6c6dc290fb71d8f1dd68aa5af2288ebd1644ebbcdb763ab7cd37d48858The reason I was able to a mine a block with CPU is because of newly implemented dynamic hashing adjustment algorithm, mining pool ASIC miners will get stuck couple of times a day by my observation today. When the ASIC miners stuck at pool, usually it stuck for 20 minutes up to 1 hour finding no blocks. The new algorithm says that when the block time is more than 2 minutes, the difficulty is almost zero. When ASIC miners stuck at pool, CPU GPU solo-miners can act and steal a block as I did above. There is only one chance. Once one block get stolen, the ASIC miners will wake up and scoop all the blocks afterwards. When ASIC miners are into pool heavily, CPU or GPU miners have no chance at pool. Just wait and observe the NENG blockchain movement, wait. When the chain appears to be stuck, act immediately and solo-mine and steal a block. Yes any one can steal a block like I did from ASIC miners with just a regular PC and a NENG wallet. Update on Oct. 2019: GPU also gets stuck on DynDiff algorithm, same as ASIC. Only CPU solo miners with Cheetah can mine smoothly when ASIC/GPU get stuck. The article was published before this knowledge was found later.

Happy Mining -a scrypt -o stratum+tcp://findblocks.com:3433 -u <WALLET ADDRESS > -p c=NENGC Please add to the ANN Thanks Not quite right on settings, when I ran your pool with my ASIC, the address search page showed up as Nasdacoin at your web page. |

Dynamic Mining Difficulty Addjustment on NENG New Wallet is major success. NENG blockchain is back on normal.
This new update resolved chain frozen situation days ago. Even if all ASIC miners left as they did on Nov 20, GPU or CPU miners can continue to mine NENG on low diff.
NENG coin does not exclude ASIC miners, which have been the major mining community before Nov. 20. But our chain can not be hostage to ASIC miners. Even if all ASIC miners leave in the future, NENG blockchain will be fine on operation as GPU/CPU miners can pick up the position and continue mining NENG on low hashing difficulty on the new algorithm.

After reading all your posts I continued asking the same question as at the beginning. What is the function or purpose of this currency? Thanks.
This will be suitable for New England Region People or enthusiastic friends of New England. New England is important region of America and it deserves a special coin just like New York City does with its New York Coin. This coin is designed for fast payment with low or no fees on micro-payment transactions. Its blockchain is protected to be operating normally in up or down market as its mining hashing rate will dynamically be adjusted suitable for CPU/GPU miners even if all ASIC miners leave in the future suddenly. It is very suitable for retail and online transactions. NewEnglandcoin also is very special as it has its own exchange ShorelineCrypto which will always support the coin for trading and coin development. I am pretty confident that NENG will stay for very long time and will be important regional cryptocurrency for long period of time. |
